I’ll let you check out his video for more info but let it be known that the MatrixBrute indeed transcends the world of paraphonic. This type of patch goes beyond the usual definition of paraphonic and Marc Doty has dubbed this kind of flexibility ‘variophonic’. And oscillator 2 going through filter number 2 controlled by envelope 3. We can easily set up a patch that has oscillator 1 going through filter number 1 being controlled by envelope 1. While they will often all share the same filter, we have two filters at our disposal and enough envelopes to articulate them individually. It’s VariophonicĪlthough the MatrixBrute is technically a monophonic synth, there is a voice mode called Paraphonic which allows us to play the three oscillators individually for three notes of polyphony. And if you take issue with my use of the word polyphonic here, just wait till we get to tip #2 2. The third column is generally a polyphonic sound, and the last column is generally a lead sound. The second column is generally a bass patch. There are some exceptions here, but If you break the buttons down into groups of four columns, the first column is generally a rhythmic or sequenced patch. What you may not be aware of is that these presets aren’t just scattered into random locations, they’re organized into categories. You might also know that the same matrix of buttons can also be used to access presets after pressing the preset button so that each button in the Matrix is a different preset. You’re probably aware that the matrix of buttons can be used for modulation routing.
Here’s ten things you may not know about it: If you’re just buying your first synth there are certainly more affordable and beginner friendly options out there, but if you consider yourself more of a connoisseur and want something with seemingly endless sound design possibilities, the MatrixBrute is definitely worth a look.
The Arturia MatrixBrute has been out for a little while now, but it remains one of the best deals available for serious synth enthusiasts.
